• The son of a Parliamentarian and a Dissenter, Lascelles did not appear to have a great interest in parliamentary politics. However, prior to the second 1701 election he supported Viscount Irwin (Arthur Ingram*) in his campaign for the county election. On 11 Sept. Lascelles wrote to Irwin, stating that
  • I am hearty glad your lordship will stand for knight of this county. I will lay out my endeavours to serve your lordship in this or any other thing that lies in my power. I hope there will be no difficulty at all in the matter for we all think hereabouts that Sir John Kaye [2nd Bt.*] is much to blame if he offer to stand considering how matters have gone this late session of Parliament.
• Lascelles himself was returned for Northallerton at a by-election in 1702, presumably as a Whig. He was an inactive Member, and did not stand for Parliament again. He died on 5 Sept. 1734. His son Henry and two of his grandsons represented Northallerton in the Georgian period.2
